post of the week for the History Department faculty.

What does Peter Thiel want?

There was a fantastic Baseball Digest article i remember from my youth that described the baseball personality types. The 3B was described as born commandos who volunteer for the dangerous missions and live on adrenaline. I would love to find that in an article somewhere. The descriptions of the other positions were great as well. Pitchers were sadists, SS and CF were the kid who dated cheerleaders and LF were jealous of the SS and CF but just a bit too lazy to be that.

I'm wondering what the JD Vance/Peter Thiel response will be to Kegbreath will be.

Its fun to see all the memes.

no kidding

You all seeing the rumors that he's at Walter Reed?

I’m seeing that they won

i guess JV will be taking a little break.

I did enjoy seeing some of the historic bats.

Currently at the Louisville Slugger museum. Not sure how i feel about it. Most humans who play don’t use wood bats and 50% at least of the bat and ball that is played uses a softball bat which is not made here.

I wonder what Elon thinks.

Color is the touchstone of reality. i’m quoting an obscure Public Service Broadcasting song “RGYBIV”

DougJBalloon is doing chef's kiss

a bit more on this https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/hegseth-s-paranoia-of-being-replaced-explains-purge-of-top-general-as-ally-emerges-for-army-secretary-s-role/ar-AA2065Rz from the article

Kegbreath and Driscoll are rivals. I guess Trump was sending Driscoll to negotiate in Europe while Pete was sleeping it off or something.

While not specifically Protestant, also problematic.

Soon Oracle Larry or Amazon Jeff or Ketamine Elon will control all the news services anyway.

I think all members of congress who have Catholics or non-protestant voters in their districts (i.e., all of them) should be outraged.

Tom Nichols has a good article in the Atlantic today about the purge of Army leadership.

Yeah sure.

U of Cincinnati was a crazy unexpected jumble that had us thinking we were in the movie “Inception” but in a good way. Her design school tour was amazeballs.

I realize this won’t work until January
